In this context, they also mean the potential applications of your findings. In other words, to explain the implications of your findings means to explain how they could be used in the real world in policy and\/or practice and why this would be a good idea.

Therefore, you can explain how psychologists in different fields could also use your findings to inform their practice, such as therapies, interventions or prevention strategies for your chosen problem. Here are some ideas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Changes to current practice (e.g. improving therapy techniques)<\/li>\n<li>Development of new practices (e.g. designing or informing new interventions or therapies)<\/li>\n<li>Influencing recommendations for clients<\/li>\n<li>Promoting or demoting particular practices<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Example:<\/strong> The following explanation is based on a study that shows ACEs are linked to adult depression if the patient also has low social support: &#8220;Results of our study have potential implications for clinicians seeking to prevent mental illness among survivors of childhood adversity. Interventions that aim to protect mental health among survivors of childhood adversity might benefit from strengthening social support or perhaps even just perception of social support\u2026 Hence, interventions may include social skills training where participants are equipped with skills to identify, invite and maintain healthy social connections with others\u2026\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/bmjopen.bmj.com\/content\/bmjopen\/7\/9\/e013228.full.pdf\">Von Cheong et al., 2017<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>In Policy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Policy usually refers to how governments or organisations could use the findings to create laws or guidelines to help people.

Firstly, it could be used to campaign for additional assistance in schools for students suffering from abuse. If their WMC is impaired, they\u2019ll probably find school harder so they could be given more support. Secondly, the findings could be used to encourage preventative measures. For example, the results could be shared during informational sessions for expecting parents. Instead of just being told \u201cdon\u2019t shake the baby,\u201d these findings could also be explained to give them more reasons why they shouldn\u2019t abuse their kids.&#8221; (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/2026\/04\/16\/the-internal-assessment-an-example-ia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more<\/a>).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"attachment_16112\" style=\"width: 481px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16112\" class=\"wp-image-16112\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=471%2C471&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"471\" height=\"471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=906%2C906&amp;ssl=1 906w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?resize=1200%2C1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.themantic-education.com\/ibpsych\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/3a5a3727-c5e6-4fdb-bbf8-a869d588c6dd.jpg?w=1254&amp;ssl=1 1254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 471px) 100vw, 471px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-16112\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A series of famous experiments showed that people can have false memories of crime scenes.
